Not sayin he rite or rong but earl camb sausage is lejeet.


It would be funny if he were disassociated from any business interests he has, shunned by his community, and ridiculed every time he went out in public.

I know he probably doesn't have a 9 to 5 job so he won't lose his job. But, it would still be nice if he were to lose all his money and be ostracized for his hatred.

That is what the white community does to their offenders if it is even suggested that another white is racist.

Unfortunately, this type of change will never come to the black communities of America because it's acceptable among them to be racists just like it was acceptable in the white community for whites to be ignorant clods in times past.

I fear that racism and hatred will be pervasive among blacks in America for a long time to come. From the richest and most successful blacks with great educations to the most ignorant and low achieving blacks, racism directed towards white people is accepted as normal and is promoted in the home, in the streets, and in business.

There is no condemnation from their own kind for the types of comments Cambell made; it's accepted as normal. Whereas, in the white community, severe retribution, social stigma, draconian punishment, etc... is the norm for any white person that behaves like Campbell.

Tua's ancestry isn't even Hawaiian. They're Samoan. American Somoa is literally as far geographically as you can get from being black.

Give Earl a break. He has taken a lot of hits to the head and they have taken their toll.

Jesus Christ. Being a native Hawaiian has nothing to do with the goddamn state they are from. How the frick does the state of Louisiana even exist when every resident is this fricking stupid.

You have got to be the dumbest motherfricker on here. You have surpassed waydownsouth as the leading inbred..

Bro, settle down. He is a Hawaii'a'a'n'an because he is from that state. I am an Alabamian because I'm from Alabama.

He has Polynesian ancestry; I have Scottish ancestry. He probably calls himself a Polynesian. I call myself an American, not Scottish.

Being from Hawaii has everything to with being Hawaiian, just like being a South Carolinian or a Floridian has everything to do with being from, born in, or having residency in those states.

Joe Burrow is the whitest QB you can possibly have without him being see through.

Does Earl Campbell even watch football anymore?

Want to know how I know you have never known a native Hawaiian?

King Kamehameha declared the name of those islands to be Hawaii in 1819. Before that, Cook had named them the Sandwich Islands.

Before that, the islands quite likely didn't have a uniform, recognized, and accepted name among the Polynesian inhabitants of the islands.

You stated this:

which is incorrect. Hawaii is simply a name bestowed on a group of islands by a king. I could have been born in the United States state of Hawaii and I would be just as much a native Hawaiian as any Polynesian.

But, being born in Hawaii doesn't give me Polynesian ancestry, because as mentioned, I have Scot ancestry.

All of those concussions he suffered during his playing career are now starting to take their cumulative effect on him. The dude is going bonkers.

Another Gump who thinks he's being smart.

"Hawaiian" is not a race you frickING RETARD!

Hawaiian means you live in Hawaii. Native Hawaiian means you were born in Hawaii.

Polynesian is group of people, or race, just like Asian.

Samoan, which is what Tua is, is a subset of the Polynesian race.

There are black, white, Samoan, and many more Hawaiians and Native Hawaiians.

The poster I responded to said "Tua. Isn't. Black. He's Hawaiian." - which tells us nothing about what race he is.

This is elementary school shite. Read a damn book, idiot.

Give my man Earl a hall pass please, I'd hate to think this may be the first or lasting impression of a great person.

Earl was never a wordsmith nor someone who would impress you by his wit, but is actually a guy who generally is spot on when it comes to being on the right side of a debate as it relates to the core of the topic.

Much rather Earl said "dual threat' vs "black", but he's correct in what he attempted to articulate.

Time is catching up with this Legend, a beautifully simple man that has been a shell of himself for decades from years of physical & mental torture.

How dumb do people have to be to upvote this. Out of 53 superbowls, 2 winning qbs have been black. So disingenuous to say that has no value
